Nothing like the secondaries on a quadrajet opening
That was a Buick Wildcat 445 ( 401 cu-in) nailhead.
And It had a Carter AFB not a rochester.
Buick and Chevy Engine builder here
Plus I'm old enough to know
We listened to a few of those big Quadrajets opening in the old days too-my '68 Impala SS 327/300 HP, and my brother's '70 GS 455, good thing gas was cheap back then! Used to run the air cleaner upside-down on the 327 for extra air flow (& noise), my brother is still the only person I ever heard of getting pulled over in it for a loud CARBURETOR!!
